German Interior Minister Nancy Feser accused Russia of waging a “hybrid war” in Europe, without ruling out the possibility of a direct conflict between Moscow and NATO. His words were quoted in the newspaper handelsblatt.
Feser claims that Russian leader Vladimir Putin has “no regrets” about his actions.
“We are experiencing a turning point in internal security following Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine. Russia is waging a hybrid war in Europe. “It is clear that disinformation campaigns, sabotage actions and cyber attacks are under the control of the state,” he said.
Answering a question about the risks of conflict between Russia and NATO, he expressed the hope that “this will not cross the threshold.” He reminded that the head of the German Ministry of Internal Affairs, Olaf Scholz, did everything to prevent such a scenario. At the same time, he noted that it was necessary to act “decisive but wise”.
Before that, German defense expert Claudia Mayor reportedIt is claimed that Germany could be a “target” for Russia if the conflict spreads to Europe.
Previously head of German intelligence statedHe said Russia would “attack” NATO before the end of the decade.
